In the real world, this rare setup built roughly 247 hp and… Read More →

Subaru and Toyota are about to enter the fourth model year of their joint electric vehicle project, and to celebrate, they’ve made some big changes to deliver a more competitive EV.

It’s challenging to picture an Outback, Forester, or Crosstrek without immediately conjuring images of these vehicles handling rugged terrain or plowing through snow with ease. The reason is that Japanese automaker Subaru has made an effort to market its models with all-wheel drive (AWD). In fact, we got a hold of a 2025 Subaru Crosstrek with Symmetrical AWD and X-Mode, finding it a great budget option for those who appreciate functionality over flashy extras. While… Read More →

Subaru’s additional big debut at the 2025 Japan Mobility Show was a car that seems more real than its Performance-E STI standmate. As in, there’s a boxer turbo four under the hood, and of course, it utilizes a version of the automaker’s symmetrical all-wheel drive. It’s called the Performance-B (badass?) STI Concept, a car that, according to the blurb announcing it, “symbolizes the Subaru performance scene.” Why yes, it does. It also symbolizes a hatchback… Read More →
